| Description: |
Here are three consecutive numbered EMD GP7's built in 1952 sitll shiny with little road grime. Interesteing note on back by the photographer Joseph McCormack, "Always kept together and used for helper (pusher) service." Interesting as he has photos of all three separate from each other and not kept together! |
